[sumo-user] A question about timestep and tau

Hello everyone,


When I output the tripinfo, it says waitSteps= an integer value. How can I get this or the total waiting time for each vehicle in seconds? Also, how can I calculate a queue length?


What is the concept of time Step? when I generate a route file with 12 vehicles departing at the same time step but in different time frame, such as the first vehicle departs at 0 seconds, the second at 3rd second, the third one in 6th second but they all are departing at the same time step. Here, the time step in 9 seconds. 10 minutes later, there are 5 vehicles departing at the same time step and the time step there becomes 5 seconds.


What can I make of time step if I want to calculate the waiting time at an intersection?


Also, any ideas on what does tau trigger? what file can I find it's source code and what functions are related to it? I want to simulate different perception-reaction times (0.5 second, 1 second, 2 seconds), How should I go for it?


Thank you,
